I had the bloody britpart truck try and wave at me tother week!!!

Bloody ****ers, if you think im going to even acknowledge its presence let alone engage in a motion to display my pleasure at seeing the worlds worst advertising for Landrovers since Robert Mugabe your sorely mistaken.

Bunch of ****s should be strung up, there a major contributing factor to the reason we wave anyway(which suits them ) we wave so we can be friendly - in case we need a tow - we might need a tow because we fit sub standard, mass produced ****e from bloody ****epart.

I hate them with a passion.

So that is why i gave the driver of said truck the middle finger and the slightly open hand wrist shake as he went past.

Did ya not think to ram him off the road?

Are you sure he was waving? Probably trying to flag you down having had clutch master and slave pop their seals and 4 sets of wheels bearings implode simultaneously

My 5 year old loves to wave too, in fact she seems to spot other defenders before me.

Loves it also because she gets to sit in the front and be in charge of the CD player as well.

I try and distract mine with waving and being in charge of the CD player, when not waving though she's far more interested in the "little gear stick" which, when she gets arms long enough to reach could be problematic!

I wave at all Disco's, Defenders/Series...& even Freelanders (Having had a couple of them myself)...

But there is a problem....I often get to drive different vehicles from work....& when I forget I'm not in one of my Disco's, I *DO* get odd looks from other Landy-drivers!.

Is it just me or are London Defender owners snotty? Here in SW London you rarely get a nod or a wave!

They're struggling to drive the thing, hence the intense concentration.

You could always try "NO!! It'll make your ears sore!!"

I'm getting used to being waved at by other vehicles now

Thanks I think to the local snow rescues over the years

If you were the blue lightweight owner who waved at me in North Notts three weeks back, apologies. I was working out how to get The previous owner's Now that's what I call 25 years out of the CD player. It deserves better than Belinda Carlisle.

Unfortunately it probably is the disco

Shouldn't really be necessary but a lift kit, winch bumper and roof lights will help

Got a real cracker from someone in a red Defender this afternoon. Full palm visible plus a flash of the lights as well, so he must have been multi tasking. On the A47 near the Wisbech turn off. I was going west and he was going east. Anybody here?
